Less than one year after its iOS launch, French startup ten ten has gone viral with a walkie-talkie app that allows teens to send voice messages to their close friends — even when their phone is locked. Whether you think that's a recipe for disaster or the coolest thing you've heard may depend on your age group, and teens clearly heard of that one long before we did; although walkie talkies are clearly not a new concept, even in app form. "We’re ephemeral by design," ten ten co-founder and CEO, Jule Comar said in a written interview with TechCrunch.

Google is embarrassed about its AI Overviews, too. Google -- a company whose name is synonymous with searching the web -- whose brand focuses on "organizing the world's information" and putting it at user's fingertips -- actually wrote in a blog post that "some odd, inaccurate or unhelpful AI Overviews certainly did show up."

In a twist that shocks absolutely no one and thrills pyromaniacs who love seeing money burn, Elon Musk's newest venture, xAI, has snagged a casual $6 billion in funding.
